They did? Seems to be the same price as M1 MacBook Pro.

Wait till you deal with real estate agents, or any middle man.

If you want a non-negotiable price, just don't negotiate the price? I mean a firm asking price doesn't mean a good price.

Yeah but you'd have to set each one up separately, or buy/return in serial order (unless you have a great deal of capital). This vs. walking into some auto mall with like 5 dealers on the same day.

It's a big purchase, so you'd want to at least test it out in person?

Remote work has led to more meetings than ever was the case in person. Google Calendar's default 30 minute meeting has made things a lot worse so that each interruption is now at least 30 minutes.

This must be cohort-dependent. For me, Marketplace buyers have flaked out more than Craigslist ones. Forums are less useful/dynamic than anonymous Reddit. And I don't even touch Messenger vs. numerous other chat apps.

It became a 45 minute traffic jam because Google directed everyone there. Maybe.

Propagation delay doesn't decrease from one end of the chip to the other if you keep the same area in total.

So you're saying it's like medieval lords, extract the same tax regardless of economic circumstance. That can be done without the roundabout via real estate.

And the microbe would tend to coexist with plastic, not eliminate it.
552.
by pishpash 4y ago
Isn't the bigger unintended consequence that it makes plastic not durable any more? In some sense it's the wrong problem to solve. You want durability in a material but want a toggle (or condition change) to trigger an alteration

Even without a rainy day fund, which is an inefficient use of capital, the state could buy financial instruments to hedge a recession. Is it prohibited from doing that?
554.
by pishpash 4y ago
That's an illusion. It is not as liquid and there is no mark-to-market but prices absolutely do fall during a recession if real estate were to trade.

It's just about pay isn't it? If you're fine working less hours for less pay, that's fine. That was always the choice. Of course there is a threshold below which you get no job at all but that isn't the case mostly.

On the other hand, real yield is barely 0% and both nominal and real yield curves are still positive and in fact steepening. E/P should be compared to the real yield.

Altruistic behavior in a non-profit? The horrors. If they want to be a corporation fine, then pay taxes like one. Otherwise they should find ways to price education at cost, not at market clearing prices. I am sure they can, just hit up don

It doesn't matter what it costs the University to educate a person. The market dictates that the BU experience should cost exactly as much as it makes the BU experience just barely worthwhile, and almost not, for the increase in human

You mean there are some sketchy places with rats living with you and addicts next door.

But who would cut it unless there is financial discipline from the lack of funds? You need to turn off the spigot first.

Total cost not that long ago (aid or not) was lower than the after-aid cost in your last sentence. What you're suggesting is to go the way of medical billing, total lack of billing transparency and fake chargemaster numbers disconnecte

Management is aligned because this makes money. Programmers do deserve $100/hr for what they do, the problem is whether it's what's needed. It's the same situation with tax software. You never needed one before but the p

There are different use cases that demand different tools. For personal projects the simpler tools from before were totally fine but now they are longer accessible. I think that's a loss.

Good question, you can run VB6 directly if you still have a copy.

by pishpash 4y ago
Because $100/hr engineers want to justify their existence.

Unicode just needs a single special delimiter character that is only used as a delimiter.

A Unicode text editor is not an ascii text editor either.

There is a move to get basic care into the hands of nurse practitioners and probably similarly most programmers shouldn't bother studying anything. If there is enough consumer demand to fill experience-based jobs then that's the m

We're talking about doing CS as a degree in college, not coding in a job. You don't even need to study CS to get a coding job. As an aside, those secretarial coding jobs will all go away within 50 years. They are only needed in th

A reflection of the electorate. There are enough dummies in California who feel the need to cry out through political power.
